From
The Editors:
Upon launching a new journal, it is customary for editors to describe
their vision for the future. As our hopes already have been more than
realized by the articles in the first and subsequent issues and these
articles speak more eloquently than we ever could about the animated state
of research in the area of music for moving images, we thought it might
be more appropriate to invoke a muse for continued inspiration. W. H.
Auden called upon St. Cecilia in his "Anthem for St. Cecilia's Day: for
Benjamin Britten" (1942):
Blessed Cecilia, appear in visions
To all musicians, appear and inspire:
Translated Daughter, come down and startle
Composing mortals with immortal fire.
We call upon both Santa Cecilia and the goddess Minerva to continue to
inspire and startle our contributors and readers.
Gillian Anderson
and Ronald Sadoff, Editors
